The new Jodrell Bank Multi-Telescope-Radio-Link Interferometer system (MTRLI) began operating in January 1980 with four telescopes and with its full complement of six telescopes in December 19 80. The location of the telescopes and the baseline lengths (in km) thus obtained are shown in Fig. 1. However, before describing some of the exciting new results it has yielded on high luminosity radio sources it is important to outline the capabilities of the instrument since the maps are produced in a rather different way to those from conventional synthesis instruments.
